Hey @grok , first it was Dwayne Johnson, whose dramatic weight loss had people comparing his appearance to that of a cancer patient. Now Vin Diesel is trending for a similar reason. What exactly is going on with these celebrities? 😳
POV: you caught ur wife on dating apps... so you had her SIDE PIECE deliver the divorce papers on their next date 💀
Dude was smart to record this for the lawyers.
Our office rolled out a policy requiring employees to reserve meeting rooms at least 24 hours ahead of time.
They created the rule after people repeatedly used the rooms for personal calls, lunch and whatever conversations happened to come up.
For three weeks, the smallest room sat unused. Apparently, nobody wanted to deal with the booking system.
Then a new employee started.
On his first Friday, he stepped into the room at 12:30, shut the door and began eating lunch.
A few minutes later, the HR manager opened the door.
“Did you reserve this room?”
“No,” he said.
“Then you can't use it. We have a room-booking policy.”
He glanced at the empty table. “But no one is using it.”....
My husband searched my phone and told the school I had been hurting our son
Gideon held my phone out across the kitchen island in our Wellington flat and said, "'How long can a child go without eating before it's dangerous.' Marama, what is this?"
I was rinsing a lunchbox. I turned off the tap.
"Why are you in my phone?"
"Yours was on the bench. It lit up and I saw it. There's more. 'Signs a child is being starved.' 'Can a mother be reported for this.' Is that what you've been doing to Tane?"
"Gideon, give it back."
"Not until you tell me why you're searching that."
"It's not what you think."
"I haven't said what I think."
"You've said it with your face."
"Then tell me why our six-year-old has lost weight and his mother is reading about starvation."
"I can't explain it standing here."
"Then sit and explain."
"I was going to tell you this weekend."
"Tell me what?"
I dried my hands slowly. In the next room the television was on low, and I knew Tane could hear us.
"Look at me," Gideon said. "Have you been withholding food from him?"
"No. Never."
"Then why does he look like that? You told me he was a picky eater."
"He is."
"Convenient."
He took the phone with him to the bedroom and shut the door. I stood there with a wet lunchbox in my hand.
That night he slept on the sofa. He didn't say goodnight to Tane, and he didn't say it to Aroha. Aroha is nine. She noticed.
On Saturday morning I was making porridge. Gideon was on the deck on the phone to his sister, and the sliding door was open.
"I've screenshotted everything," he said. "I'm going to the school on Monday. If she's doing this to him, I'll go to the police and then to Oranga Tamariki. I'm taking both kids to Mum's in Hamilton. I don't care what it costs."
I turned around.
Tane was standing in the doorway in his dinosaur pyjamas, holding his favourite spoon. He had heard every word.
He didn't cry. He looked at the porridge, then at me.
"Mum, did I do something wrong with my food?"
"No, baby. Never."
"Then why is Dad cross?"
"He's frightened. He doesn't understand yet."
He nodded slowly and put the spoon down on the bench.
"Mum," he said, "if I eat the whole bowl, will Dad stop being cross with you?"
I couldn't answer. I picked him up, though he's light as a bird, and he tucked his face into my neck and held on.
Gideon's mother Pauline arrived on Sunday with a roast chicken and her handbag over her arm. She went straight to the pantry and looked at every shelf.
"I told Gideon years ago," she said. "A mother who keeps a bare cupboard has a reason."
"Pauline, please. Tane is in the next room."
"Let him hear. He should know what kind of mother he has."
"I've been feeding him exactly what the doctor said."
"Then why is he thin?"
"That's what I'm trying to find out."
"A mother who knows doesn't have to find out."
Aroha stood at the door with her drawing book. "Nana, Mum cooks him four different dinners and he eats two bites of each."
"Go and play, darling."
That evening Gideon's sister Sione posted in our suburb's Facebook group. "Praying for a little boy who deserves better. Some mothers need help, and some need to be held to account. No names." Ninety-six comments by morning. Six were from parents at Tane's school.
On Monday his teacher, Mrs Hemi, asked to see me. The school had received a "concern" and was required to make a referral. At pickup a mother put her hand on my arm and said, softly, "Marama, there's support if you need it." A boy told Tane, "My mum says your mum doesn't feed you." Tane stopped taking his lunchbox out of his bag.
I work as a speech-language therapist at a clinic in Lower Hutt. A colleague had seen the post. My manager asked, carefully, whether I wanted a few days.
On Wednesday I took Gideon with me to the paediatric gastroenterologist, Dr. Pereira. He sat with his arms folded and screenshots on his phone.
Lady Gaga Opens Up About Her Battle with Psychosis and Brain Patterns, Explaining How "Radical Acceptance" and Medication Saved Her Life.
Interviewer: You brought up a period a few years ago when it seems like your mental health was not in a great place. What exactly was going on with you then?
Lady Gaga: I had psychosis. I was not deeply in touch with reality for a while, and it took me out of life in a big way.
Interviewer: Was it difficult to keep creating music while going through that amount of depression and fear?
Lady Gaga: I knew my health was really suffering during my career when I didn't want to make music. It almost went too far beyond that, it silenced me.
Interviewer: You wrote a song called "911." What is the story behind that track?
Lady Gaga: It’s about an antipsychotic medication that I take. It is because I can't always control the things that my brain does. I know that, and I have to take medication to stop the chemical process that occurs.
Interviewer: How are you able to remain creative and keep going in the midst of that mental and physical pain?
Lady Gaga: That has come from medicine and therapy, specifically Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). It also comes through a concept I learned called radical acceptance.
Interviewer: What does radical acceptance mean to you in practice?
Lady Gaga: Radical acceptance is this concept where I accept that I have mental health issues, I take medication to stay on board, and I am a survivor. I have radically accepted that I will put my shame in a box all the way over there, make it very small, and just live.
That’s a major shake-up for DC Studios Jeremy Latcham has big production experience, but replacing James Gunn and Peter Safran is no small task. The real test will be whether he can deliver the consistency and quality DC fans have been waiting for.
